What day is it? 8 days? 9 days? Oh! It's ten days on the diet to die for.

Nothing big to report on my diet. I am eating significantly less with no cravings. That's pretty sensational of itself. 


Cassie visited Arpana, our family doc yesterday. After 5 months on the diet she wanted to see whether it really was 'the diet to die for' - and obviously, after a lab test, to see what effect the diet had upon her markers.

She came home elated. Her report was amazing. Firstly, her Bilirubin level was the best it had been for years. It's a great indicator of liver health - very significant given she has relieved it of all that work it had to do previously managing sugars. Secondly, her LDL's - her good cholesterol was also fabulous. This is a test on a 50 year old woman eating what the usual health world would say is 'excessive' saturated fats - in the form of coconut oil. The only down-indicator was calcium, and she'll get back into the water - she had been a little slack recently, and maybe our AlkaBooster.

I was very excited because she did it all on her own with more than one negative comments from me. She kept going and all her indicators are excellent. Energy, awareness, mental clarity. And she's a s trim as I've seen her for years.
